Disputes; Binding Arbitration Agreement; Class Action Waiver:

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT AND TO HAVE A JURY HEAR YOUR CLAIMS.

Scope of the Arbitration Agreement. Any and all disputes, actions, claims, or other controversies concerning or arising in any way out of the Promotion, these Official Rules, or any prize; and any advertising by, promotion of, or other communications with Sponsor; and any related activities (collectively, a “Dispute”), whether based in contract, tort, statute, or any other legal or equitable basis, shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding individual arbitration. “Dispute” will be given the broadest possible meaning allowable under law. This agreement to arbitrate covers threshold questions of arbitrability. The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve any and all Disputes arising out of or relating to the formation, existence, scope, validity, interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this agreement to arbitrate, or any part of it, or of these Official Rules, except that any issue concerning the validity of the class action waiver or the batch arbitration provisions below must be decided by a court.

Exceptions. Notwithstanding anything else herein, you and Sponsor agree that a court will resolve the following types of Disputes, unless you and Sponsor agree otherwise: (1) Disputes or claims within the jurisdiction of a small claims court consistent with the jurisdictional and dollar limits that may apply, as long as they are maintained as individual Disputes; (2) Disputes or claims where the sole form of relief sought is injunctive relief (including public injunctive relief); or (3) intellectual property Disputes. You and Sponsor agree that for Disputes where both injunctive relief (including public injunctive relief) and non-injunctive relief are sought, you and Sponsor will first submit the Dispute for non-injunctive relief to arbitration pursuant to this binding Arbitration Agreement; Class Action Waiver section. The arbitrator will not be permitted to grant injunctive relief (unless the parties agree otherwise). Once the arbitration of the Dispute or claim for non- injunctive relief concludes, you and/or Sponsor may seek the injunctive relief (including the public injunctive relief) in court to the extent permitted by law. Any litigation in court of the foregoing types of Disputes (except for small claims court actions) shall be commenced only in a federal or state court in San Francisco, California, and you and Sponsor consent to the jurisdiction of those courts for such purposes. Any Dispute remains subject to the class action waiver provision below.

Informal Dispute Resolution. As a condition precedent that must be satisfied before initiating any arbitration, either party asserting a Dispute shall first try in good faith to resolve it by providing written notice as specified below to the other party describing the facts and circumstances (including any relevant documentation) and allowing the receiving party 30 days in which to respond.

Arbitration. Either party may initiate arbitration of a Dispute, which will be settled by final and binding arbitration, using the English language, administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under the AAA Rules then in effect (those rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this section, and as of the date of these Official Rules). Unless you and Sponsor agree otherwise, including to conduct the arbitration by telephone or videoconference, any arbitration hearing shall take place in San Francisco, California, unless the arbitrator determines that a different location would better serve the convenience of the parties. AAA Rules govern payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator costs and expenses, except that if you demonstrate that any such costs and expenses owed by you under those rules would be prohibitively more expensive than a court proceeding, Sponsor will pay the amount the arbitrator determines is necessary to prevent the arbitration from being prohibitively expensive (subject to possible reimbursement as set forth below). Each party is responsible for its, his, or her own attorneys’ fees and expenses, unless applicable law, rule, or order requires otherwise. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court that has jurisdiction.

Batch Arbitration. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the foregoing or in the applicable AAA Rules then in effect, and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you and Sponsor agree that, in the event there are 25 or more individual arbitration demands filed within a 90-day period relating to the same or similar facts and asserting the same or similar claims for relief, brought by claimants represented by the same counsel or counsel coordinating with one another, the following rules shall apply:

• AAA shall administer the arbitration demands in batches of 25 demands per batch (or as close as possible to 25, where there are fewer than 25 demands to fill a batch).
• For each such batch, AAA shall appoint a single arbitrator and resolve the batch as a single consolidated arbitration, with one set of filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees due per batch (with the same fee schedule being applied to the entire batch as would ordinarily apply to a single arbitration).
• Batches may be arbitrated concurrently. Arbitration awards in one batch shall have no precedential effect on subsequently administered batches.
• You and Sponsor shall cooperate with one another and with AAA to implement this batch arbitration process in good faith, in the interests of minimizing the costs of arbitration.

Any challenge by a party to the applicability, validity, or enforceability of this batch arbitration provision shall be decided only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator. In the event that this batch arbitration provision is found to be invalid or unenforceable, or in the event that the AAA declines to implement this batch arbitration provision for any reason, the entire Arbitration Agreement shall be of no force and effect when there are 25 or more individual arbitration demands filed within a 90-day period relating to the same or similar facts and asserting the same or similar claims for relief, brought by claimants represented by the same counsel or counsel coordinating with one another. The class action waiver, however, will still apply to the extent permitted by law.

WAIVER OF RIGHT TO BRING CLASS ACTION AND REPRESENTATIVE CLAIMS.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AND SPONSOR AGREE THAT ANY PROCEEDING TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE WILL BE BROUGHT AND CONDUCTED ONLY IN THE RESPECTIVE PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS PART OF ANY CLASS (OR PURPORTED CLASS), CONSOLIDATED, MULTIPLE- PLAINTIFF, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING (“CLASS ACTION”). YOU AND SPONSOR AGREE TO WAIVE THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS ACTION. YOU AND SPONSOR WAIVE ANY ABILITY TO MAINTAIN A CLASS ACTION IN ANY FORUM. IF THE DISPUTE IS SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION, THE ARBITRATOR WILL NOT HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO COMBINE OR AGGREGATE CLAIMS, CONDUCT A CLASS ACTION, OR MAKE AN AWARD TO ANY PERSON OR ENTITY NOT A PARTY TO THE ARBITRATION. YOU AND SPONSOR AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE PROCEEDINGS FOR MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, AND IT MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CLASS ACTION. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, YOU CAN SEEK PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF TO THE EXTENT AUTHORIZED BY LAW AND CONSISTENT WITH THE EXCEPTIONS CLAUSE ABOVE.

IF THIS CLASS ACTION WAIVER IS LIMITED, VOIDED, OR HELD UNENFORCEABLE, THEN, UNLESS THE PARTIES MUTUALLY AGREE OTHERWISE, THE PARTIES’ AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE SHALL BE NULL AND VOID WITH RESPECT TO SUCH PROCEEDING SO LONG AS THE PROCEEDING IS PERMITTED TO PROCEED AS A CLASS ACTION. If a court decides that the limitations of this paragraph are deemed invalid or unenforceable, any putative class, private attorney general, or consolidated or representative action must be brought in a court of proper jurisdiction and not in arbitration.

Right to Opt-Out of Arbitration. You have the right to not be bound by the arbitration provisions and the class action waiver above by sending written notice of your decision to opt-out within 30 days of your agreeing to these Official Rules to:

Your written notification must include your name, address, and a clear statement that you do not wish to resolve Disputes with Sponsor through arbitration and/or that you do not agree to the class action waiver. If you do not opt out, you shall be bound to arbitrate Disputes on an individual basis in accordance with the provisions of this Binding Arbitration Agreement; Class Action Waiver Section. If you opt out of only the arbitration provisions, the class action waiver still applies. You may not opt out of only the class action waiver and not also the arbitration provisions. If you opt-out of these arbitration provisions and/or class action waiver, Sponsor also will not be bound by them.

Governing Law and Other Terms. This Arbitration Agreement and class action waiver are governed by, and interpreted and enforced in accordance with, the Federal Arbitration Act and other applicable federal law. To the extent state law applies to any aspect of this Binding Arbitration Agreement; Class Action Waiver, or to any Disputes that are covered by this binding Arbitration Agreement and/or class action waiver, California law applies. Sponsor will provide notice of any material changes to this binding Arbitration Agreement and/or class action waiver (which may be satisfied by updating these Official Rules, unless not permitted by law), in which case you will have the right to opt out of the arbitration provisions and/or class action waiver within 30 days after such change, consistent with the terms above. Except as set forth above regarding the class action waiver provision, if any portion of these arbitration provisions is deemed invalid or unenforceable, it will not invalidate the remaining portions of these arbitration provisions.
